Trump's tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico take effect

[FoxBusinessNews] President Trump was asked on Monday whether there was room left for any room left for Canada or Mexico to make a deal to avoid tariffs and he replied, "No room left for Mexico or for Canada. No, the tariffs, you know, they're all set. They go into effect tomorrow."

Today being yesterday’s tomorrow.

Shortly after taking office in January, Trump announced he would impose tariffs on the three countries and cited the flows of illegal fentanyl shipments across the Mexican and Canadian borders, as well as precursor chemicals for fentanyl shipped from China. He cited authority under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA).

While the China tariffs were implemented on schedule, the president delayed the Canada and Mexico tariffs for a month after the two countries announced border security measures.

"Just so you understand, vast amounts of fentanyl have poured into our country from Mexico and, as you know, also from China, where it goes to Mexico and goes to Canada. And China also had an additional 10%, so it's 10 plus 10. And it comes in from Canada, and it comes in from Mexico, and that's a very important thing to say," Trump said during Monday's press conference.
